2018 Battle Guide

The elections of 2016 are behind us. As we turn the page to 2018, the Cornell Democrats are committed to helping elect Democrats nationwide, starting in our own backyard. Rep. Tom Reed (R NY-23) was one of the first congressional supporters of Trump's candidacy. He was named to Trump's transition team and has been a consistent advocate for cutting taxes for large corporations, relaxing firearm restrictions, gutting Obamacare, and defunding Planned Parenthood. The Cornell Democrats are committed to #UnseatReed2018.

The Cornell Democrats are proud to announce their endorsement of Tracy Mitrano for New York's 23rd Congressional District. As university students, we believe in the importance of investing in education without crippling young people with burdensome debt. Tracy Mitrano is committed to making interest-free loans available to students across the nation, which is a critical first-step to accessible and affordable higher education. We also believe that it’s more important than ever to have a representative in Congress who is an expert in cybersecurity and internet policy.

We are thrilled to have a former educator from Cornell representing the Democratic Party in the upcoming midterm elections, as Tracy Mitrano was the Director of Information Technology Policy at Cornell University between 2001 and 2014. The Cornell Democrats are certain that Tracy will continue to fight for all students from the 23rd District in Washington, D.C.
